About Leah

Practicing as a psychotherapist for over 17 years, I have clinical experience in individual and group psychotherapy, crisis intervention, home-based treatment, and school-based counseling.  Currently practicing with Midwest Psychiatric Center in West Chester, Ohio, I provide individual psychotherapy to clients age 7 and up. 

​

I utilize EMDR Therapy her primary treatment model.  I am also skilled in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Solution Focused Brief Treatment, and Psychodynamics.  I integrate mindfulness strategies, bibliotherapy, and Expressive Arts Therapy practices into my work with clients, emphasizing individualized, client-centered care. 

​

​Some of the specialty areas in my work include treating Complex/Developmental Trauma, ethical integration of client spirituality in psychotherapy, as well as healing Religious Abuse and Spiritual Trauma.  

​

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with husband and our two children.  Music and art are a big part of my spirituality, self-expression, and self-care.  I also enjoy yoga, reading, being outdoors, and watching sports with my family.
